Happy New Year – And Some Resolutions

A slightly belated Happy New Year to everyone!

The New Year began. And there was much rejoicing.

While I'm not normally into the practice New Year's
resolutions, I'm going to make some this year.

The year 2012 ground to a bad end for me. Not tragically or
catastrophically; just not fun. Work turned into an avalanche the last several
months, and nearly all my non-work activities came to a halt. I did manage to
keep my West Kingdom PbB game going, but I've only done that by the skin of my
teeth. No blogging, no painting, and rarely time to even glance at the blogs I
usually haunt. The downside is that 2013 is likely to begin in the same way.

Which of course has me in a bit of a funk. All work and no
play...

So a couple of simple, realistic New Year's resolutions to
try and ensure that I stop and smell the gaming and blogging roses from time to time:

1. Make time at least once a week to read blogs, no matter
what else is going on.

2. Make time at least once a week to paint.

3. Make at least one blog post per month (ideally both here
and on my WWII blog)

I think maintaining these three very reasonable resolutions may go a long way toward getting a bit more pleasure out of life than I have done recently. Fingers crossed!
